�It�s always like that. One never understands anything, then suddenly, one evening, you end up dying of it.�
- Jean �Luc Goddard (b. 1930), French film-maker and author: Lemmy Caution (Eddie Constantine), in �Alphaville� (film; written and directed by Jean-Luc Goddard), 1965.
�Time is such a simple, almost primitive idea. It is� just a means of communication. We are swaddled in it, cocooned, and there is nothing to stop us tearing off the wadding of centuries that envelops us so that all our awareness should be common, one, simultaneous.�
- Andrey Tarkovsky (1932 � 1986), Russian film-maker: journal entry, Dec 12, 1979, published in �Time Within Time: The Diaries 1970 � 1986), 1989, translated 1994.
�True thoughts are those alone which do not understand themselves.�
- Theodor W. Adorno (1903 � 1969), German philosopher, sociologist and music critic: �Minima Moralia�, 1951, translated 1978.
